A wonderful introduction

A crystal clear book. It shows the geometrical significance of topics like eigenvalues/eigenvectors without losing the intuition in the formalism, like so many other books on Linear Algebra. The book would be particularly suitable for scientists, though prospective mathematicians would appreciate the "whys" too. I only wish there were follow-on, more advanced, volumes!
